  • No! Not That! Anything But That!

    We had this absolute nutter at the hotel this Thanksgiving. She comes into the breakfast room and becomes irate at the fact that are bagels are not pre-sliced. She insisted that the plastic butter knives we leave out for the guests do not work.

    She then proceeds to plop down at a table and acted so oddly that some of the other guests left the breakfast room soon after. She piled a ton of food on her table, didn't eat a bite, and left it all lying there.

    She then gets it into her head that my co-worker shoved her when she accidentally brushed by her. The woman goes ballistic calling her rude and demanding the owner's name. Both my co-worker and manager explain to her that it was an accident, but she refuses to believe them. She goes outside wanders around aimlessly and then stormed back in demanding the owner's name and number. She will do this about three more times.

    By this time manager wants her gone and tells her this, she whines about the hotel throwing out disabled people. That's when she issued the most fearsome threat ever uttered "I'm going to Google you."

    With that horrible threat uttered she and her husband leave the hotel. However she called four times that day and called once more the next demanding the owner's name and number

    Just make up a name & tell her his number is a 555-1212 (or something like that). That'll keep her busy for awhile trying to figure out why the number won't work.

      did you ever give her the #? or are you guys not allowed to do that?

      you have more stamina then i, i would have told her to take a hike about the time she freaked about the so called "shove"

      perhaps she had some mental illness but lordy wouldn't her hubby take care of her?
      it's said that no sane person could bite another person and draw blood. I've done it before, but then again sanity has always been questionable in our family.

            When will people figure out that the owner usually has nothing more to do with the business than rake in the $$$ and duck & cover when something really bad happens, which is usually involves murder or rape and not bagels...

            Although, in all fairness, bagels can sometimes be !@#$ing hard to slice with a plastic knife, but I wouldn't expect a hotel to provide otherwise as they probably don't have a dishwasher.

            And piling up food she has no intention of eating? Seen it. It disgusts me. Hotels don't always have enough food for everybody as the amount of people wanting to eat and their appetites are hard to predict. So you should be leaving what you don't want for everyone else. But NO, these jerks HAVE TO claim their "free food" because it is THEIRS and no one else's, whether they really want it or not.

            Sometimes I want to go up behind people like that and say (in a mother's chastising tone), "Now, finish your plate; there are other children in Africa who are starving."

              "Yes, Officers, I am. Is there a problem? Is something wrong?"

              "Ma'am, I'm sorry to have to tell you this. But it seems that this morning, while working, your husband was......was......."

              "Was what? My husband was what?"

              "Ma'am, it seems your husband was.........googled."

              "What? Jim? Googled? No. It can't be. Not my Jimmy! IT CAN'T BE! NOOOO!!!!!"

                          OK is anyone else thinking of that scene in Austin Powers where the wife gets told of her evil minion husband's death?

                          I can see the papers now: Innocent man googled to death!

                          I wonder if that is better or worse than death by snoo snoo?

                              "Google" you?

                              I don't think that term means what she thinks it means.

                              If you have to ask, it's probably better posted at www.fratching.com
